Event Details

American higher education has become a maze of the meaner things: illiberal ideologies, broken promises, and intellectual default. Our conference will summon a larger, liberating view of what higher education can do. We have a plan. We will convene to address important issues in higher education today and to celebrate NAS’s twenty-fifth anniversary.

"Expatiate free o'er all this scene of man;

A mighty maze! but not without a plan."

-Alexander Pope, An Essay on Man
